# Private Message
|
|
Zulip allows users to send private messages to each other.
|
|
## There are two ways to send a Private Message :
|
|
### Way 1:
|
|
* To submit a new private message, first click on the `New Private Message` button located at the bottom of your screen.
|
|
|
|
* The following box will be displayed
|
|
|
|
|
|
* In the **one or more people...** field, input the username or email address of the user you want to privately message.
|
|
When you begin typing an email address or username, autocomplete suggestions will appear.
|
|
|
|
* If you attempt to input a nonexistent username or email address, an error message will appear.
|
|
|
|
### Way 2:
|
|
+ You also can click on the **user's name** in the `USERS` panel on the right and click on `down arrow` that
|
|
gets visible when hovering over the name and click on the option `Compose a private message to <user's name>`
|
|
and write the message in the compose box.
|
|
|
|
You can always discard your message by clicking the **x** () icon located at the top-right corner of your compose box.
